Idaho Drag Performer Wins $1.1 Million in Defamation Suit Against Blogger
-
A drag performer in Idaho won more than $1.1 million in damages in a defamation lawsuit against a blogger who falsely claimed that he had exposed himself to a crowd that included children at an event two years ago.
On Friday May 24th, 2024, the jury unanimously decided that the blogger, Summer Bushnell, had defamed the artist, Eric Posey, when she claimed in videos and comments online that Posey exposed his genitalia while dancing onstage during a pride event in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, even though he had not. It awarded Posey $926,000 in compensatory damages for defamation and another $250,000 in punitive damages.
Posey, who performed under the name Mona Liza Million, agreed to participate in the Coeur d’Alene event on June 11, 2022. That event, called Pride in the Park, prompted national news media coverage after 31 members of a white nationalist group called Patriot Front were arrested nearby.
Summer Bushnell, who runs a website called The Bushnell Report, posted a video about the arrests in June 2022. In it, she claimed that Posey had “flashed his genitalia to minors and people in the crowd.” She later posted another video, of Posey dancing onstage, that was edited to blur his pelvic area, suggesting it was censoring nudity. But law enforcement officials later concluded that the unedited videos showed that Posey was clothed and did not expose himself.
In September 2022, shortly after Posey filed his lawsuit, Bushnell told a reporter at The Idaho Statesman that she had not attended the pride event herself but had received footage of the performance from someone she declined to identify.

Why don't you do a thread on the ones that have been shown to have done creepy shit involving kids?
We already had discussed that drag queen who did the Drag Queen Story Time who wore a short skirt with no underwear.
We also discussed some of the others who had issues and should have been nowhere near kids.
You might remember the UK library who did a similar event. They hired the adult "circus" troop. The "monkey" had his ass hanging out the back and a huge dildo hanging out in the front.
The threads are here if you want to refresh your memory.

@Spintendo Wow that's 2 of you now. Why such a huge deal to yall?
@raphjd said in Idaho Drag Performer Wins $1.1 Million in Defamation Suit Against Blogger:
wore a short skirt with no underwear.
Indeed. "They weren't naked outright! This 1 person, 1 time, weren't fully naked in front of kids they groomed! Only 85%! There!"
That's 2 libs, on Idaho person, to MAKE SURE we saw - tho I never mentioned them before - did you? don't think so
HAHAHAHahahahahahahahaha
-
Memo must have went from Lib Central
-
@raphjd No need. Highlighting anomalies is your gig.
-
@jaroonn didn't answer real question.
There's thousands of cases of groomers who get sketchy or abusive with kids - and nowadays in 2023-24, worse, who demand an imaginary-"right"(??) to. Sometimes even in name of LGB.
And it's important to you & @spintendo - apparently - that you found phony case, one definite lie - that was never promoted around here.
Between you, few threads overall - yet - double threads for this one.
You even upvoted. (as I did - but for humor - surely not your reason)
Why important to you?
Guilty conscience?
On groomer side much?
PS. OBVIOUSLY I condemn all liars. ( <-- You're dumb enough, to need me to say obvious)
& OBVIOUSLY I do not associate molesters or sketchy groomers, to LGB................. but you guys do: You bring it up.
-
Well, actually, the drag performer in this thread is the anomaly.
1 wrongly accused drag performer vs several correctly accused drag performers.
-
@raphjd Vs hundreds (maybe more) that perform all the time with no incident whatsoever.
If someone breaks the law, punish them. If they don't, don't vilify them.
-
People have had enough.
U wannabe naked? Many do. Try bathhouse, designated grownup beach, same-sex locker room. Or go virtual, with online porn.
Or if you're Criminal Biden, try your daughter's private shower time.
But wowsers, control yourself in public & in front of other people's kids you retarded asshole. Gay or straight.
Event below is not drag, not even LGB. But look forward to more pushback like this, in few days, June, month when flashers, pedos & other groomers seize upon LGB & drag, as their excuse.

As to actual drag: No, this isn't for kids.
"But they're not twerking naked! Not even twerking in their usual thong & demon makeup!"
How dumb are you.It's for grownups....... groomer.

Why don't you do a thread on the ones that have been shown to have done creepy shit involving kids?
Which raises a good question. With all the supposed infractions occurring in this regard, why Ms. Bushnell's need to make one up out of thin air? She only did herself (and her wallet) a disservice by repeating lies.
Are you sure this particular case hadn't been mentioned here somewhere? I find it hard to believe that this story would have rocketed around the conservative blogosphere and not been repeated here.

I've mentioned the ones I remember discussing here. I don't remember this case.
Of course, you aren't interested in discussing the naughty drag queens.
-
@Spintendo But why your (& jaroontard's) odd little need, to push this out twice?
When no, story was not mentioned around here.Or if it was: ok Find the mention, on this site. I'd enjoy, to see & remember.
"I find it hard to believe that this story would have rocketed around the conservative blogosphere and not been repeated
here"
Not good enough.Indeed - as daily I read Left, Center & Right twitterspheres, & post all kinds of tidbits, I never did see this story <-- even out there.
You supposedly believe in facts, journalism etc. - but here, you are reduced to mere "I find it hard to believes" ??? ie. your imagination?
Your goalpost jumped continents
Meanwhile - outside here - thousands of pedos & groomers get sketchy or abusive with kids - really NOTHING to do with LGB or drag....
....except... some of those criminals do seize upon LGB or drag as their fake-excuse - and, you libs too often let them.

@raphjd said in Idaho Drag Performer Wins $1.1 Million in Defamation Suit Against Blogger:
I don't remember this case.
Allow me to refresh your memory:
30 June 2022, 23:09 --- "The SPLC, Media Matters, Business Insider, HuffPost, NewsBreak, and NPR all lied and claimed that Libs Of TikTok created a violent situation at an Idaho "family" drag show."
Only problem was, according to you, you mistook the Idaho drag show in question for another notorious Pride event:
01 July 2022, 06:27 --- "I was wrong about something. I mixed up the Idaho Pride event with the drag event in San Francisco. That does not change the over-arching premise of my original comment."
Either way the "Idaho Pride event", as you called it, was clearly on your mind one way or another. How ironic it was then, that those posts came from a thread where you argued about those who need to "correct their lies":
Why do liberal media refuse to correct their lies, in light of the FBI proving they were wrong?
Poor Ms. Bushnell, soon to be out 1.1 million dollars, still hasn't owned up to her lies. She prefers blaming others.

Are you saying that I remember EVERYTHING?
Do you remember EVERYTHING?
There are plenty of disgusting drag queen stories out there that do not show them in a good light, when it comes to performances in front of kids, at so-called "family events".
-
@Spintendo Weak.
"The SPLC, Media Matters, Business Insider, HuffPost, NewsBreak, and NPR all lied [about] Libs Of TikTok
was @raphjd central point - and it stands. eh?
Meanwhile he RIGHTLY corrected a detail - and you want to hold that good action against him?
You imagine it means, he surely wrote something else somewhere invisible, to condemn Posey or (wrongly) support Bushnell - except he still didn't? you still got nothing?
Libs!
If you got something, put it up. You know, "Na na, na na, na na, na na, na na now, baby give it up, give it up, Baby give it up."

Here are 2 pictures from the UK's Redbridge library event to encourage kids to read.
The 1st pic shows the monkey with his ass out.
The 2nd pic shows the monkey's dildo (digitized). It's actually taken inside the public library.
I used to have other pics of this event, that aren't altered for decency, but I may have lost them. I'm sure they are posted here, in some thread(s).
This is what liberals think is appropriate for kid events.

@raphjd like I said: some pedo/groomer criminals, seize upon LGB & drag as their fake-excuse.
& libs let them - some libs even cheer them on - but Why?
